flag Thailand’s parliament debates constitutional changes to create a new charter via public input and referendums.

flag Thailand’s parliament is debating amendments to Section 156 of the 2017 constitution to enable a new constitution through a participatory process, driven by public demand and concerns over democratic legitimacy. flag Multiple party drafts propose establishing a Constituent Assembly via joint parliamentary sessions, with at least two referendums to ensure legitimacy. flag While some lawmakers, like Prit and Dr. Cholanat, advocate for public input and transparency, others, including Mr. Jurin Laksanawisit, oppose changing foundational chapters, citing stability risks. flag Senators like Nantana Nantawaropas warn against misleading language and call for genuine public participation, stressing the need for honest referendums. flag The process aims to create a constitution reflecting the people’s will, with proposed timelines for a referendum alongside the next general election.
